"Population-Scale Single-Cell eQTL Mapping Identifies Cell Type-Specific Control of Disease"

This presentation will cover both conceptional and practical challenges in generating and analyzing population-scale single-cell data. It will include a discussion of results from the OneK1K project, which is analyzing 1,000 cells from 1,000 people, with a focus on identifying single-cell expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) and their role in contributing to disease risk.
